This is seriously the worst thread Ive ever read. Why do you care so much what other people are doing? Use the energy to develop your self, and dont worry what others are doing. Give people a chance! People enact with good intentions. Always give the benefit of the doubt. Im very sure they have their own "reasons" for doing this. Dont worry about it! Your going to drive yourself crazy.

yeah, i work in a nursing home. Most of those are peaceful enough, a little crying by the family then out the door!

Yes, i have listed above my qualifications, now I need a nursing title to fit. Also: 1) what can an rn do a lpn cannot/is not allowed to do? 2) is this statement true: an knows how, but an RN knows how and why? if that is true, then i am in the rn category.

1) what can a rn do a lpn cannot do? 2) if an lpn can learn and do the how, but the rn can learn to know how and why.. then i fit into the rn category.

Im saying .. here are my qualifications... where do i fit in?

im saying these are my job duties and where do i "fit in" in nursing?
